Data Management
Connectivity
• Vessel based so no major differences apart from satellite comms
  (>80n)
• VSAT installed on majority of vessels working in the region

Data Management of Funded Eurofleets+ Research Cruises:
• Eurofleets+ Data Management Policy for funded cruises is subject
  to the FAIR data Principles
• Information regarding a cruise must be provided as follows:
    • Metadata of the cruise (SeaDataNet Cruise Summary                   An active open data
       Report): within two weeks after the cruise                         management strategy
    • Metadata of the datasets of the cruise: within one month after      to capture and publish
        the cruise                                                        EF+ TA cruises with
    • en-route data: via EARS, delayed mode                               research data collected
    • CTD data: within two months                                         underway and
    • "manual" data, e.g. sample-based: two months, but at the            processed afterwards
       latest before M45 (01/11/2022).
    • embargo: optional, up to two years after the cruise, justified in
       the DMP

Technology Development
New European RV’s:
RV BELGICA II: ICE(1C)
RV Celtic Voyager Replacement: ICE1C FS

New vessel design for Artic operations:
• Moon pools to deploy and recover ROV,
  AUV and CTD/Rosette (EFs+ JRA 3.2
  SEANONICS)
• Acoustically quiet
• Use of ship launched drones
                                          Kronprins Haakon
Governance
• Normal diplomatic clearance process to date no experience in more
  challenging regions (Russia)

Eurofleets 2 WP3
• D3.5 evaluated three different models for optimization of the polar
  research fleet; Barter & Exchange System, ARICE & Icebreakers
  jointly operated and financed by an international consortium

• D3.6 “Report on implementation models, Governance and sustained
  Stakeholder involvement:
  Recommendation: ARICE Consortium
Sustainability
 •   Reduced Emissions from diesel engines
 •   Acoustically Silent Vessels
 •   Compliance in IMO Requirements
 •   Polar Code
• Eurofleets+ FAIR Data Principles to Reuse data
• Eurofleets+ Remote Transnational Access

The Remote Transnational Access (RTA) Programme is providing researchers with remote access to
samples or data from any of the state-of-the-art research vessels offered within EUROFLEETS+. This
remote access will allow sample or data needs to be addressed remotely, when this can be accomplished
with one day of ship time.
